I was eyeing up the hex equivalent to replace my aging Park P-handle set (the ones with the blue grip), as some of the heads are rounded out a bit with use. To my surprise, there is no 'ball-head' end on the new tools. I find the ball head end useful for getting those bolts out that you cant always get to at a straight shot. As pretty as they are, I think they missed the mark on the hex ones too. Ill likely look elsewhere to replace my set, or replace it with the same set, which Park still sells as well.
PS I still own a bike that uses T-40 for some of the pivot hardware, so those fittings are out there!
